A winning weekend for the Lambs
Above: Ally Lamb and Eagle Rock.
The Sale and District Showjumping Club held their Elms Showjumping Classic Show over the weekend. The three-day program might not have included a leg of the Australian World Cup series, like it has previously, however, this year the show incorporated the several classes in the Victorian Country Championships.
It was a great weekend for the Lamb family. Ally Lamb combined with her lovely grey Stallion Eagle Rock to record a fantastic double clear performance over the two rounds of the Brown Wigg sponsored Victorian Country Senior Championship. In second place, also double clear but with a round two time just 0.39 seconds slower than the winners were Frida Lindgren and Mabobri De Mabribo. There would certainly have been some boasting rights around the dinner table last night as Ally’s husband Andrew Lamb and Spartava DP completed a trio of double clears, however, were two seconds slower than the winners and had to settle for third place. Keen followers of the sport would have suspected that Ally would have had a great chance in the feature class after she and Eagle Rock took out the open 1.40m class on Friday, which most of the combinations in the feature class had used as a warm-up. Ally also picked up another win on the Friday in the open 1.20m class with Glenara Chacco DP.
Also joining in the dinner table conversation would have been Andrew and Ally’s son Joel. Joel took out two classes, with the most significant being his win with Clasique Andor in the Victorian Country Junior Championship. For good measure, Joel and Emcee Holly Go Lightly picked up the win in the 1.15m championship class on Sunday morning.
While the Lamb family did very well, there were plenty of other stars over the three days of competition. Skye Orchard and her gelding Blackwood Billabong picked up a pair of wins at 0.70m on Friday and 0.85m on Sunday, all done without dislodging a rail. Similarly, a pair of wins were claimed by local Gippsland rider Xanthe Wade and gelding Lakevale Tarwyn at 0.80m and 0.85m.
Airlie Robinson and her mare Yalambis Corlandia made the most of the weekend, also claiming a pair of wins. They took the win in the first class of the weekend on the main arena, before backing this up late on Saturday afternoon with an impressive display to take out the Kiernan Plant Hire Speed Championship. This pair were over two seconds clear of daughter Tanner Robinson and Bringmoore who filled second place. Also racking up a pair od trips to the top of the presentation dais was Clint Beresford who won the open 1.30m class on Friday with Emmaville Jitterbug, before winning an open 1.15m class on Saturday with his young mare Oaks Chingo.
Besides Ally Lamb, there was just one other rider to claim three victories over the course of the show. That honour went to Bek Carrolan who combined with CP Quigley to win a class on each day, which is a great performance from the pair who recently finished a very solid seventh in the Opal series at the Australian Championships.
They won at 1.00m on Friday and then 1.04m on Saturday, before taking out the very prestigious inaugural Vicki Greg Memorial Class on Sunday afternoon. In total, they had five rounds and everyone of them was clear. A fantastic effort.
It was a wonderful weekend of Jumping held in great conditions in a beautiful location. What more could lovers of Jumping ask for.
Congratulations to the winners and placegetters over all three days of the show, who are listed below:
